Omschrijving
Informative, thought-provoking and disturbing, this book poses the most important question of our time: how can we stop destroying our planet?
"Well researched and backed up by facts and figures, West writes with a forceful honesty that anyone who has heard him speak will recognise. He is self-reflective and refuses to spare himself from his own criticisms. The narrative may be personal, but it resonates."
"By tapping into gardeners’ responsiveness to their surroundings, West makes an effectively plainspoken plea for change...this account has relevance for all gardeners, regardless of what’s on their dinner plates."
“A heartfelt, knowledgeable discourse…The Garden of Vegan is reflective and inspiring in its examination of vegan garden principles and of vegan living as an important catalyst for change.”
“An exhaustive introduction to anything you might want to know about veganism. Every statistic, from how much methane farting cows produce worldwide, to how much plant protein it takes to create the same amount of animal protein, to how much B12 a person actually needs is fully researched and set down here. More crucially, every argument against veganism is calmly and carefully set out and dealt with."
"A personal, persuasive take on why an animal-free diet might be for you and the wider world...this challenging, deeply personal book is an important read."
"Cleve West is one of the most brilliant stars in our firmament of garden designers, and the only one to have won best in show at Chelsea two years in succession. Coming soon is The Garden of Vegan, explaining his deeply held convictions about plants and what they can do for our health."
"Raw in both style and content - and it may change your life."
"An eye-opening account of how modern intensive agriculture damages animals and, potentially, those who consume them...This book aims to inspire us to be more ecologically sensitive, and respectful to humanity... thought-provoking."
"Neither preachy nor judgemental, Cleve delivers his compelling arguments for environmentally-friendly vegan practices with warmth, humour and wit. It’s not an easy read by any means, but an essential one for anyone who cares for the planet."
"Well researched, warmly written and worth reading."
